This week, egg curry for lunch is down, flip flop related toe-stubbing injuries are up and biscuit flavoured spread is the new jam. Read on for more thrilling insights.

Paarp pa parp parp parp

Big congratulations to the team at Excellent Development this week. They’re one of the organisations that the innocent foundation support and have just won a couple of rather big awards. Thanks to all the excellent work they do with communities in rural Kenya, last week they scooped the award for Environmental Charity of the Year at the Charity Awards and then went on to be crowned overall Charity of the Year from a shortlist of thirty other organisations. Great recognition indeed for lots of hard work, neat hair and smart frocks.  

709 hours and counting...

Happy July. Only 2 days in and already it's looking to be a belter. Seeing as there are only 709 hours and 29 minutes of this gloriously hazy month left till August kicks in, we suggest you use your seventh month wisely. You could take the train from Penzance to Thurso and back 16 times, watch the complete series of On the Buses 22 times in a row or simply kick back and enjoy our light, summery new smoothie of the month oranges, mandarins & raspberries to your heart’s content. Looks like that’s July sorted then.

Blu-Tack ahoy

We are on fete countdown at the moment. Bunting is being ironed, the ducks are being briefed and we're putting up some posters. You could help if you want (with the posters, not the ducks). All you need to do is download our poster, stick it up where lots of people will see it and then upload a photo of your handiwork to this flickr group. There will be a plethora of our finest drinks for the best placed poster, the strangest placed poster and the place with the highest footfall. The office noticeboard, the gents loos or Shinjuku train station are all good places to get sticking. But make sure you ask nicely before you start papering your local noticeboard, or the chap trying to flog his trouser-press might get a bit cross.

And well done to Claire, Bron, Monica S, Pam and Lizzie for winning last week’s book competition.

And finally...
